Barzin

"Barzin's self-titled debut album is a gorgeous marriage of mood, minimalism and melancholia. Imagine Slint's quieter moments or Hayden's more gothic opuses and you'll have an idea of Barzin's approach This is a morose masterpiece, an exercise in understatement that leaves the listener wanting more"

The follow-up album, 'My Life In Rooms' was released in Europe in 2006 and was similarly acclaimed, leading to a demand for the re-issue of the S/T debut. A new album is scheduled for release in 2008.

"This eponymous CD boasts ripe writing skills, delicate arrangements, and exquisite production. Barzin's songs originate from the melancholic indie rock of Low, with hints of the American neo-folk currentThere is no weak moment on this album". Recommended (4/5) - All Music Guide.
